➤ How to remove the front and rear seats of Lada Vesta

How to remove the front seat of a Lada Vesta Sedan

The process description is suitable for many car brands.

We place the car on a level surface and open the front doors.
Move the driver's seat all the way back. Remove two screws (head 10).
Move the chair forward as far as possible and unscrew the two screws at the back. The size is similar.

We remove the chair from the car interior and place it on the surface of the workbench for work.

Using the same principle, we remove the front seat of the Lada Vesta.

Unlike “Classic”, “Lux” and “Comfort” chairs have:

greater rigidity;
lateral support;
quality of fabric upholstery;
the presence of an armrest;
heating system.

How to remove the back seat on a Lada Vesta

The rear seats structurally consist of an upper backrest and a lower sofa. We dismantle them separately from each other.

To remove the rear seat sofa, you must:

Open the rear doors, and together with your partner, lift the sofa up, thereby removing its front part from the latch.
Move the sofa towards the luggage compartment, remove the lower hinge from the lock.

Remove the sofa from the car interior.

Removing the backrest separately

Experts say that the backrests can be removed separately by pulling the latch located behind the seat. If you press on this hook from the trunk, the backrest should recline.

But at the same time, there are many complaints that the clamps are made of low-quality material , and therefore can often break. Therefore, to avoid such troubles, it is recommended to remove the backrests only with a pillow. This increases the service life of the chairs.

Removing the back of the rear seat on a Lada Vesta

Unscrew the seat belt fastenings on the left and right side of the backrest (bolts at “14”).
Unscrew the screws at the base of the back (2 in total).

We unfasten the fastening one by one and remove the backrest from the car interior.

If necessary, we carry out preventive maintenance and install in the reverse order. On the Lada Vesta SV station wagon, the rear seat is removed by pressing the side plastic latches and folding the backrest to a horizontal position.

How to put covers on a Lada Vesta without removing the front seats

Standard set of covers:

front and rear headrests (2 pieces each, plus one small one);
front backrests (2 pcs.);
base (2 pcs.);
backrest is composite (2 pcs.);
rear sofa (1 piece).

Before you start putting on the covers, remove the seat pad and the plastic handle for the lumbar support.

To do this, we press the casing at the location of the handle, and use pliers to squeeze the metal bracket out of the core.
Pull the cover carefully without damaging the fabric.
We put the braid under the bottom of the chair, pull it through, and tie it in a knot. We first move the chair forward (backward) all the way for convenience.
We put the covers on the backrests, tuck the material under the plastic clamps of the headrests. You can remove them with a flat screwdriver or by hand.

We insert the braid into the gap between the back and the base, pull it tight, and tie the thread.

By analogy, we put covers on the passenger seat.

Step-by-step instructions for dismantling

Before starting work, we prepare the necessary tools. To remove the seats we will need:

flat and Phillips screwdrivers;
key to 10;
pliers;
repair kit (depending on the situation).

It is better to work with gloves so as not to accidentally injure your hand on sharp metal corners.

The procedure is as follows:

Unfasten the rear seat upholstery buttons on the trunk side.
Pull back the loop and remove the latch near the headrest.
To get to the latch, you need to pull the loop near the headrest

Conclusion

The process of dismantling the front seats and rear sofa is simple. If you follow the described recommendations, installing the covers will take no more than half an hour.

How effective the covers are is up to you to decide individually. Don’t forget that every time you get into the car you rub down the seats, subsequently holes and scuffs form. The service life of the seat is reduced by a third. When selling a car, worn out (damaged) seats serve as the basis for a discount on the price of the car.

Can the backrests be removed separately?

This is not difficult to do; you also need to pull the loop behind the headrest, and then unfasten the upholstery and remove the backrest from the lower fastenings. Many car enthusiasts complain that the locks are made of low-quality materials, and after several removals the latches no longer hold the parts properly. Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, it is recommended to remove the backrests along with the bottom pillow. This will increase the service life of the seats.

In the VAZ 2110 model, the seat fastenings are made quite simply. Dismantling these structures requires tools that every car enthusiast can find.
